In reply, CSK's much vaunted line-up could muster only 162/10 in 19 Overs as none of the top-order batsmen went onto play a match-winning knock. Harbhajan Singh 2/26 in 4 Overs, who removed the dangerous Suresh Raina (25) and skipper MS Dhoni (0) off successive deliveries to swing the match decisively in MI's favour    | |||||||||
